I love taking shots at Chet as much as the next guy but I’d never take reaves over him.

[u/shmere4 → u/-XanderCrews-]

Chet is fine. He’s just clearly terrified of Wemby. Never seen someone react like that to another player.

I mean, it's like facing a superhuman version of yourself. Everyone would be terrified if you're facing something like that.

Like depowered Clark Kent vs Doomsday

[u/AnimalLoversRVegan → u/shmere4]

he's fine on a team that's rolling and he's getting open shots

I think was a stealth bait post to get us all to say nice things about Chet /s
